Sensitivity analysis of building physical parameters to maximize heating energy saving using MPC (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Vand, B., Lopes, Y. K., Hathway, E. A., & Rockett, P. (in press). Sensitivity analysis of building physical parameters to maximize heating energy saving using MPC. In Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference of Energy Harvesting, Storage, and Transfer (EHST'19). https://doi.org/10.11159/ehst19.136

Buildings are one of the largest energy consumers and emitters of CO2, and they consume a significant portion of the overall energy in the world [1]. There is an increased interest in using model-predictive control (MPC) to optimise building performa...

Demand Response of Space Heating and Ventilation – Impact on Indoor Environmental Quality (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Martin, K., Jokisalo, J., Kosonen, R., & Alimohammadisagvand, B. (2018). Demand Response of Space Heating and Ventilation – Impact on Indoor Environmental Quality. In Proceedings of Roomvent & Ventilation 2018 (133-138)

Demand response can be utilized within heating and ventilation of buildings to reduce CO2 emissions and energy costs on both utility and consumer level. During demand response control, some of the indoor environmental parameters (room air temperature...

The potential of predictive control in minimizing the electricity cost in a heat-pump heated residential house (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Alimohammadisagvand, B., Jokisalo, J., & Sirén, K. (2016). The potential of predictive control in minimizing the electricity cost in a heat-pump heated residential house. In Proceedings of the 3rd IBPSA-England Conference BSO 2016

This study aims to investigate the energy demand response (DR) actions on energy consumption and cost for a thermal energy storage system with a ground source heat pump in a detached residential house in a cold climate. This aim was applied for two b... Read More about The potential of predictive control in minimizing the electricity cost in a heat-pump heated residential house.
